The Better Halves Project Ep03: New Parenthood From His Perspective

The question this week is from me! I wanted Drew to speak honestly about his perspective on becoming a parent, and everything that entailed in terms of work, home, and finding his way as a dad. We talk about the transition to parenthood, the struggles of finding our roles, and the importance of male allyship. Drew opens up about the feelings of being undervalued at home, adjusting expectations, and the societal conditioning that affects our views on household responsibilities. We also discuss the mental load of unpaid labour, the benefits of shared responsibilities, and the significance of having open, honest conversations. This episode is a deep dive into the dynamics of modern parenting and the journey towards creating a more balanced and happy relationship.
